The Never Ending Persuit

It's October 15th 2012, This marks the fourth year of my unemployment. Happy Anniversary? not so much.  I've been diligently following job leads, applying everywhere and selling myself to potential employers. I've got to tell you though, it's tough.

Sometimes I feel disappointed, like I've been looked over. I constantly am looking at myself and seeing what I need to change to make me desirable. I know I can do the work, I'm a hard worker, have been since I was a young child with my first job. I know the economy is tough but when you find yourself hurtling toward Christmas without a dime to your name, it really hits you.

I shouldn't say I don't have a dime. I get $20 monthly from the government in HST cheques they are no longer quarterly. It's not much but I've learned to put a little aside so I've got my family covered for Christmas gifts on a tight budget. Not that Christmas is about gifts but it is nice being able to give.

I'm staying positive, my break has to be around the corner. When I land work, I'm taking no prisoners. I'm going to be the best darn employee a person could hope for.

On a brighter note...all our pies sold out at Applefest this weekend.

Just a drabble from my life.
